Anyone know if it’s possible to get just the heel pieces for an haute route/helio 200lt? Skimoco sells them with the plates, but i don’t really need them and would prefer to get just the towers if it’s possible

Unfortunately not, i think BD are the only ones that had a version of these and it looks like even they might be discontinued

Cut some 3.2mm and 4.7mm shims for raider toes as well. Classic & raider shims shipping out today.

Looks great
So I ended up purchasing an ATK AL07 spacer to use with Marker Alpinist. I elected to shim the heel and I should have enough space below my boot. The spacers came with a fine thread small button head machine screw with one attachment hole. I am assuming I substitute a wood screw in the longest length that will fit the hole. I was expecting two holes as it would seem the spacer could pivot on one. Am I missing something here?
Thanks, I was assuming that I was missing something
Thanks Norseman! I’ve been using them for two seasons mounted through the single hole plus some
Epoxy. No problems so far but your way sounds better and I can’t imagine how I missed it.

Messing about with getting the al05 to work with teh haute route/trofeo series bindings. obvious answer is to mill down the a05, but shimming was easier this time around. Cut some .6mm al5052 so I could mount the al05 to various inserted skis and VHBed the spacer to the al shim, looks like itll work pretty well. Shims + freeride spacer + hardware is only like 70g more per ski, so total weight still is ~250g per binding.

Looks great! I was gonna ask why not just VHB directly to the ski if you don't want to drill, but then I saw you said you were swapping the binding around to different skis.
I would be tempted to do similar, but I doubt I would notice the difference on my skinnier skis that have HRs on them.
Yeah i have no idea if ill be able to tell the difference. I figured this was a low impact way to answer that question; ive got the same pattern on some 112 waisted skis where i imagine the fr spacer would be more advantageous. Obvious downsides of this current config is worse flat skinning mode and having to shim the toe even higher to get a flatter stance.
Is there noticeable movement in flat mode when your heel hits the spacer?

Does anyone know which (if any) free-rider spacer works stock with the c-raider? I'm hoping the AL09 does. AL13 does not for sure.
If anyone was curious about bending brakes, I was able to bend the 120mm FR15 evo brakes to fit C132s quite easily using the old ski pole and vice method, with the brakes disassembled. Just like the good ol' 75mm pivot/fks days.
The AL09 should as I believe it’s just the base of the toe that is different on the c raiders.
can somebody school me on ATK mount patters? Unfortunately, I lost my skis with my beloved ATK Freerider 14 2.0 bindings in the avalanche, but I still have 2 other pairs mounted with inserts that I really wanna use. So, do any of ATK binders have same old mount pattern as Freerider 14 2.0?
From skimoco it looks like the hole pattern is unchanged from the old ones to new

I think the BD Helio 350 bindings fit that mount pattern

I'm sure it's in here somewhere, but does anyone know if the AL07 heel spacer fits the C-Raider 12?
What are most of the ladies on when it comes to raiders? Raider 11 or 13?
Picked up a pair of Bella tours for the wife and after my experience with raiders I’m sold on them for touring binders.
She’s and aggressive skier and they’re 108 powder skis.
I’m thinking the raider 11s are the call but wanted to hear the feedback from this group first.
All the Raider 11, 13 & 15 Evo models are identical apart from their din ranges. The biggest difference is whether they're used with the AL13 Evo Freeride Spacer Kit, which is a must IMO irrespective of the chosen model. The FR Spacer Kit is included with the Evo 15 model but is available as an extra for the Evo 11 & 13.
Appreciate the info. I totally agree the spacer is a must. I think I’m just trying to figure out what din range is most suitable to her. 5’5” and 140lbs. Skis a 172. Aggressive skier but not hucking. In your opinion does the 11 or 13 din range make more sense?
I had no idea BSL played into it. Looks like it’s 300. Anything else I’m missing?
I made her up. You caught me. These are for me.
FYI for those ATK curious in the summer months. Black Diamond is blowing out ATK bindings in their outlet. Freeraider 16 for $350, World Cups for $230, some other DIN/performance in between.
WoW don’t need bindings but those are some serious discounts. BD dropping atk? Cash needed?
They were running deep industry deals on ATK bindings in March too. I think there is just a lot of inventory left over from this past season. It's the same with skis and many bikes companies previous years stuff. I've seen more blowout style deals this summer than in a long time.
I guess so. Clicked on after and saw Tectons and airbags heavily discounted. Maybe that’s why my fb marketplace deals have been so good. Folks buy cheap sell cheap
